U.S. 52 is reduced to one, 11-foot lane in each direction between T.R. 569 (Old U.S. 52) near the S.R. 239 interchange and the Scioto River bridges at the Portsmouth corporation limit for a major rehabilitation project. The project work limits also include portions of S.R. 73, S.R. 239 and S.R. 852. Throughout construction, traffic will be maintained in one, 11-foot lane in each direction, and ramps will be reduced to 10-foot lanes. The project is anticipated to be completed in early fall 2014.

As part of the U.S. 52 resurfacing project, the exit ramp (Ramp F) from U.S. 52 East to S.R. 239 North is closed for bridge rehabilitation. Motorists will have access to S.R. 239 from the off ramp; however, there will be no access to U.S. 52 East from S.R. 239, so traffic will be detoured via S.R. 73/104. The closure is anticipated to be in effect through early July, and progression of this phase of the project will be contingent upon the weather.

S.R. 73 is reduced to one, 10-foot lane for a slip repair project. The project site is located at the 8.50-mile marker, approximately 1.5 miles east of S.R. 348 at Otway and near Milt Jones Road.
